Description
Long ago in a distant land between two mountains there was a spoiled lord. He had everything he wanted from rare riches to exotic fruits. Every morning the lord would visit his huge garden and wait for a very special nightingale to come and sing to him. However eventually the lord got whole personal orchestra and the bird`s song was not needed anymore. The nightingale felt alone and sad and wished on a star to be a human so he could play these mysterious instruments that make such music that is better then his.
The wish came true.
Now as he was human he learned how to play and he was ready to visit his lord. However, then he noticed how poor are the people living in the lord`s domain. He got upset and instead of going to the lord he stayed with the people to cheer them with his songs.
Inspired by his songs the people rebelled against the lord and over throned him ~ The bard became a hero yet with all the fame and riches now won, he couldn`t help but dream of the days he used to fly. So he set off on adventure to find a star so he could wish himself to become nightingale again!
The End

Thats pretty much all I had for that guy :"D;;;; Remember that "Long time ago" song? I still have no idea what they sang about (Robin Hood I`m guessing but then who knows the more I listen to it the more I doubt it) but it inspired that fella! ^__^! The colours were kinda hard to place cause I had no idea what to use.. but I`m more than happy with the result XD; I thought he`ll be trouble maker kinda guy but he turns out to be heroic and self confident bard haha
Glad ya liked him! He likes you all as well.. you are his audience after all >> <<;

XD New year new character...always rocks! Now that I think about it I have new characer too... +_+ From the new adventure plot that shall not be named!
Anyways I love the tale of Mirai... its so inspiring and he is too just as the tale says XD; I see what you mean now about how he can back up that he is really that good... ^^
Its kind of like a suikodenish tale haha...but of course its own spin on it since it was a bard's songs that united the people not a hero XD;
I love his looks, especially the hat with the feather and jewels and his shirt ++ Great pick of colors too...Im happy he showed himself more to you easily now!
He really looks so charming too... so definitely a bard XD haha... just like the way he plays too, it looks all magical and he looks magical himself in a way...can't quite describe how maybe like a twinkle in his eye that kind of draws you in what he sings? XD
Overall, I love him and glad to see him colored and with name! ^^
